Tahuya and Dewatto rivers

[seansfire]

Just  thought i would share that we took a drive out there this evening and saw nothing at all at the bridge at Tahuya river and we went to Dewatto campground and walked downstream a little bit and saw a bunch of chum in there. Cant recall ever seeing chum in there before. Well lets hope for a good year with lots of huge silvers in both rivers this year.

Do those rivers get much pressure. I walked the destroy early in the summer and didn't see a soul.  There was also no run of fish at the time. Just trout fishing

Tahuya use to be a bunch of people laying their buzbombs on the bottom until fish swam by then snagging up with the treble hooks. Hopefully that has been cleaned up some.

Tahuya, yeah all I saw the only time I fished there were snaggers.  Dewatto I fished the same day as the Tahuya a couple years ago and saw about 20 silvers, didn't get any biters but did get a nice sea-run cutthroat that was about 14" long.  I'm sure all of those rivers in hood canal have chum in them.

stopped in at dewatto river campground today and saw nothing but chum carcasses here and there but no silvers yet. hopefully they show up in force this year and the tribes who net there dont wipe em out like last year before they make it past the mouth.

didnt go to tahuya river as we figured if there was none at dewatto probably the same thing at tahuya.
